I'm attempting to run a Linux script through Python's subprocess module. Below is the subprocess command:
result = subprocess.run(['/dir/scripts/0_texts.sh'], shell=True)
print(result)
Here is the 0_texts.sh
script file:
cd /dir/TXTs
pylanguagetool text_0.txt > comments_0.txt
The subprocess command executes the script file, writing a new comments_0.txt
in the correct directory. However, there's an error in the execution. The comments_0.txt
contains an error of "input file is required", and the subprocess result returns returncode=2
. When I run the pylanguagetool text_0.txt > comments_0.txt
directly in the terminal the command executes properly, with the comments_0.txt
written with the proper input file of text_0.txt
.
Any suggestions on what I'm missing?
There is some ambiguity here in that it's not obvious which shell is run each time 0_texts.sh
is invoked, and whether it has the values you expect of environment variables like PATH
, which could result in a different copy of pylanguagetool
running from when you call it at the command line.
First I'd suggest removing the shell=True
option in subprocess.run
, which is only involving another, potentially different shell here. Next I would change subprocess.run(['/dir/scripts/0_texts.sh'])
to subprocess.run(['bash', '/dir/scripts/0_texts.sh'])
(or whichever shell you wanted to run, probably bash
or dash
) to remove that source of ambiguity. Finally, you can try using type pylanguagetool
in the script, invoking pylanguagetool
with its full path, or calling bash /dir/scripts/0_texts.sh
from your terminal to debug the situation further.
A bigger-picture issue is, pyLanguageTool is a Python library, so you're almost certainly going to be better off calling its functions from your original Python script directly instead of using a shell script as an intermediary.
